This peak is unnamed on OS maps. It lies on the boundary of the townlands of Glenbeg East, Glenbeg West and Kilbride. Any information on the correct name of this hill would be welcome.
Glenbeg East is the 901st highest summit in Ireland.Trackback: http://mountainviews.ie/summit/875/

Visiting friends near Headford, I left the wife in bed to bag this delightful little hill. Despite taking a few wrong turns, I parked the car opposite a house at M049 596A after asking the owners who were in the process of painting the property white. Setting up the slope in a NW direction with the sound of Yellowhammers, Skylarks, Meadow Pipits and Willow Warblers in my ears I quickly came across steeper ground and a false summit to a slightly boggy and undulating summit ridge. I made my way to a fence which runs along the spine of the hill and in the absence of trig, chose the point where the ridge fence is joined by a fence from the northern slope as the summit point. Fine views are had all round taking in Loughs Mask, Corrib and Nafooey as well as the Partry Mountains, Joyce Country with the higher Maumturks just visible above the closer summits. A wonderfuly panoramic scene for a short climb! Trackback: http://mountainviews.ie/summit/875/comment/6779/
